MrComando Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 Sup, I have never overclocked a thing on a computer in my life and this is the first comp I have built by myself. What do you guys think about the SY-P4I875P Dragon 2 (Platinum Edition)? Would it be a good board to overclock and how much would I be able to over clock it? I ordered water cooling so I could start over clocking. Here's the specs of my comp: Intel Pentium 4, 2400 MHz 133MHz external bus RADEON 9800 PRO 1 x 512MB PC2100 Audigy Gamers 2 180 GB HD SY-P4I875P DRAGON 2 (Platinum Edition) I haven't even started to mod my comp yet but I know what I am going to purchase.

Eva_Unit_0 Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 I would recommend against a Soyo board. They are rather cheap, and fall right alongside ECS, PC chips, matsonic, etc. in terms of quality. Good choice of chipsets, though. The 875 chipset is a very good one. Also, that ram you have listed is going to hold back your overclock a bunch because it's already running at max rated speed. You'll want some pc2700 at LEAST to really oc. Edit: Welcome to OCC! B) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CmpFreak88 Posted March 5, 2004 Posted March 5, 2004 I also would recommend you steer clear of Soyo, I've had nothing but problems. Asus seem to be what I'd go with now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liltroy Posted March 6, 2004 Posted March 6, 2004 I have a soyo dragon plus kt600 and am overclocked to 2.16 on a xp2500.Its serving me well so far but i just wish it was offered with an nf2 chipset!Anyway, I think soyo is a "decent" board but for overclocking next time Ill go with Asus or Gigabyte Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
